8 programmes or fliers for musical events and plays in Royal Leamington Spa. These cover a variety of events that took place at various venues in the town between approximately 1928 and 1951.
The programmes are as follows:
Elocutionary & Musical Recital by J Ballantyne Trenwith and Neville Jackson. Undated and no venue named.
Programme of Francesca Hall's Students' Afternoon of Song. Blue Cafe, Bath Street, dated 1928.
Matinee by Students of Miss Naomi Sansom in aid of The Stratford Memorial Theatre Fund. Theatre Royal, Leamington Spa, dated 1928.
Leamington Spa Male Voice Choir Concert. Town Hall, dated 1931.
City of Birmingham Orchestra Concert. Jephson Gardens Pavilion, undated.
The Young Vic Company presenting The King Stag. Winter Hall, adjoining Royal Pump Rooms, undated. This flier has the Leamington Spa details pasted over those of the Palace Theatre, Reading.
Talisman Theatre Players in Prunella, a Spectacular Fantasy of 4 Acts. Jephson Gardens Pavilion. A programme and flier, undated but the programme has the Festival of Britain logo from 1951.
These give an interesting insight into the musical life of the town. Several include adverts for businesses, many of which probably no longer exist.
Sizes and formats vary, smallest is 190 x 125mm and the largest 255 x 190mm. Some are single sheets, some 4 pages and some multi-page programmes.
All have been used and so there is some wear but all are complete and fully readable.
Please note. I do my best to accurately photograph and describe the condition of the items for sale, including any minor defects, but all pieces are vintage and have had previous lives and so may have minor flaws.
Postage is for UK only, please enquire for overseas postage.
